Our weekly program, Making Democracy Work, is a collaboration between KSMU Radio and the League of Women Voters of Southwest Missouri. It's hosted and produced by volunteers from the LWV, and it airs each Monday morning at 9:45 a.m. on KSMU. 

In this episode of our local program Making Democracy Work, host Dr. Hue-Ping Chin speaks with Dr. Chris Branton, associate professor of computer science and lead advisor at Drury University.

Branton discusses the ever-evolving world of generative artificial intelligence (AI) and explores the impacts on higher education. He talks about the benefits to the education process while also sharing concerns about impacts on overall learning.
